Garçon Means Boy
Garçon Means Boy is a group founded by Andrew Mouck; other collaborators include Phil Horwitz, Alex Seguin, and myself. One of the first performances of the group was a loosely structured jam on Andrew’s rooftop amid Queen’s University’s homecoming celebrations (which would entitle them to a fine for violating municipal noise bylaws). Garçon Means Boy is currently producing a release for 2008.
